从域Win 7客户端到Server 2012的ODBC连接

Question

Trying to setup an ODBC connection for UPS to access our SQL server, from our shipping client computer.

I have scoured as much as I can an ran across:

runas /netonly /user:domain\account "c:\windows\system32\odbcad32.exe"

Now, using this method, on my current client computer, I was able to setup an odbc connection successfully using SQL Native Client 11 (5058). I am using Win 10. Our shipping computer, with multiple manifest systems on it, is still using Win 7, but otherwise is setup the same on the domain.

Using the same process as above, the connection ultimately times out, and states that the server is not online/not available/not allowing remote connections.

Is there a step I'm missing? Both clients have same rules for firewall, both are using the same user/password in the runas cmd. The only difference between the two clients is Win 10 vs. Win 7, and the current logged in user is different (but that shouldn't matter with the runas cmd?)

Thanks!

Answer 1

So after several days/hours of trying various solutions and suggestions from all over the interwebs, I came across this solution/tips.

In SQL Server Configuration, checking the network configuration protocols/clients/aliases. In my case, there was an aliases established for 32-bit, and not 64-bit. I disabled the 32-bit one.

I then found suggestions to us the ip (which I had tried in the past, with no success), but this time, after ensuring all the tcp/ip protocols were enabled and the 32-bit aliases was disabled, I was able to connect the 32-bit to the 64-bit SQL server, using the xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx address of the server.

Test came back successful!
